Depends on your tools/settings. Paketto Keiretsu can scan a b class for a
single port in <10 seconds (target and you need a lot of bandwidth though).
It sounds like your iSS/OS is patiently waiting for timeouts/etc, and if
this is the case then a scan could take a very long time, especially if the
target is configured to drop packets silently. Personally I'd use
nmap/paketto if you just want to generate a quick list of potential targets.
